How Does It Work?

After you enroll in the school, here’s how it works:

Step 1: Reading The Lessons

You’ll have access to read Lesson 1 right away. At the end of each lesson, you’re offered a recommended reading guide (optional) as well as an assignment.

The following week, you will recieve an email announcing your next lesson is available.

Step 2: Submitting Your Assignments

All of your assignments can be published on your existing blog (if you have one), your new Wordpress blog, or your new Matador blog. From there, your assignment will be available for review by Matador editors and other students.

Step 3: Discussing In The Forums

After each lesson, you are able to discuss the ideas further in the forums, with other students and Matador editors.

Lather, rinse, repeat each week.

Browsing Market Leads

Throughout the travel writing course, you will have access to our exclusive Market Leads board, updated with the latest writing gigs. As a MatadorU student, you are free to pursue these leads at any time, though you may wish to complete the course first.

Completing the Course

This schedule will proceed for the entire 12 week travel writing course. Once the course is over, you’ve finished all the readings, and your assignments have been submitted, you’ll have the option to continue on as a MatadorU Alumni Pro.

For a small monthly fee, you can keep access to the Market Leads and Bonus Modules. But don’t worry about the course material. Regardless if you sign up for Alumni Pro, you will always have access to the complete curriculum and Student Forums.
